Wikipedia Looks To Expand

It’s already widespread. But now Wikipedia is looking to become more diverse as it reaches its 10th birthday.

The site’s leaders say they are seeking a more diverse group of editors — with an emphasis on adding more women to the mix. Wikipedia is also about to open an office in India and wants to expand further in Brazil, Egypt and other Middle Eastern countries. Today, 20 percent of the site’s pages are written in English. But the organization expects that to change over the next 10 years.
